Thanks sprkplug, I'm aware of several commercial 'bug lights' but what I always thought was their downfall is they depended on the bugs to come around to the light and then what makes them get into the water? They accidentally fall in? They rest on the surface for a second? Fish jump out of the water to snap them up?
It seems the light part is great, but we need a part II where they either get zapped by a force field, chemical, paralysis agent, and fall in (or at least a very high percentage of them fall in) or they are mechanically swept or blown in.
Is it a minority or majority of the bugs that come to fly around that light that end up being eaten by the waiting fish below?
The mosquito attracting stands that use burning propane to produce heat and CO2 attract bugs very nicely, but they wouldn't work if it wasn't for the fan that blew them into a bag. I was thinking of the same idea where heat, CO2, light something attracts and they also get propelled into the water.
Hmm...
